Jessie

Jessie knew her pattern began with 4 and then added 3 more stickers each time.  With support she was able to come to the conclusion that her sticker count was 37.  (12x3 plus one more sticker for the first square).  Jessie was easily able to create this pattern with no assistance.

Jessie is able to read most times on analogue and digital clocks and she understands 24 hour time in am and pm.  She cleverly drew a clock with the 5 minute intervals in between and chose a tricky time to draw (with success).  She can solve problems involving exact time by using an number line.

Nicole, Jessie, Lucy and Hanna worked extremely well together to work out what food they have in their fridges.  Nicole had to be re-focused several times when she was caught being inattentive!  Firstly they made a strip graph and then made statements about this graph.  They made a connection to fractions (because there was 4 in their group) and made statements like "3/4 people in the group like carrots".  After that they measured their strip graph into a circle and transformed this into a pie graph.  The size of the strips (i.e. carrots) helped them to measure their slice of pie.  They made more statements about their information off the pie graph and found that they were learning and seeing new things.  They made 2 statements each and supported each other to add detail to these.  To finish they confidently made a computer graph. 

Jessie was competently able to build this 3D polyhedron.  She was able to count the faces, vertices (corners), edges and even all of the angles that the shape had.  Great geometry Jessie.

Jessie found these geometrical activities easy to complete.  Her tessellating bird pattern looks effective and she was able to work out how to do this by slotting them together.  As you can tell, she found her symmetrical design easy to do.  Great geometrical work Jessie!

Talia and Jessie worked very well together to design and build this 3D geometrical city.  Firstly they planned their city using a 2D drawing.  They then build all of the shapes and created all of the extra elements you can see in their city.  The achieved the criteria easily (they had to include certain geometrical elements like symmetry, tessellation etc).  Well done girls, you have done a great job.

Safety Power-point presentation

Over Term 1 and 2 we have looked at different aspects of safety.  Jessie and Hanna made a power-point that explained hunting safety.  They researched their topic and then designed their own slide-show.  They presented their findings to the class.  They did an amazing job standing up confidently in front of the class.

30/6/16  Jessie wrote her own speech about good and bad types of farms.  Here is her speech.
